Tessa Thompson's Valkyrie Marvel's First LGBTQ Superhero
Now that Tessa Thompson‘s Valkyrie has taken over as king of Asgard from Chris Hemsworth‘s Thor, there’s only one thing left to do: find a wife.
“First of all, as new King [of Asgard], she needs to find her queen, so that will be her first order of business. She has some ideas. Keep you posted,” Thompson said as the packed Hall H crowd screamed their approval. “The answer is yes,” Feige told io9 of Valkyrie having an LGBTQ storyline. “How that impacts the story remains to be seen with that level of representation you’ll see across our films, not in just Thor 4.”
A video from a fan captured the moment Thompson made the announcement during Marvel’s introduction of phase 4. The panel confirmed Hemsworth and Thompson will return for the fourth installment in the Thor franchise, titled Thor: Love and Thunder. Also returning is Thor: Ragnarok director Taika Waititi, while Natalie Portman will make her first appearance in the franchise since 2013’s Thor: The Dark World as the first female Thor.
